Chapter 354: Companion Demon Worm
Lao Li looked up to the sky and laughed for a while, and looked at Xia Hao's direction. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"I've loved wine all my life, but I didn't expect it to happen because of drinking!" Lao Li sighed angrily, then bowed to everyone and said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry, today's events are all because of me, and naturally I will bear it." β
"I'll leave it to me." Lao Li's mouth still spewed a faint red wine, "Everyone knows the temper of the gluttonous dragon, if you can't find someone, I'm afraid you'll go crazy!" Retreat to the watchtower, and I'll take it as far as I can in the direction of the Misty Swamp! β
Everyone fell silent, the Gluttonous Dragon had only appeared once in Setirifin's hunt, but that time it had killed dozens of people alive, all of which had been swallowed raw, and many of the people who had entered the Eighth District earlier knew about it.
It can be said that it is no longer a question of whether Lao Li is willing to retreat, but that he can no longer retreat, if he retreats, everyone in the eighth district will suffer!
As Lao Li said, the gluttonous dragon is a tyrant, and all the hunting beasts in the eight districts look up to its snort, even the ferocious two-headed vicious dog does not dare to disobey it at all, and once it comes out, it will definitely bring bloody rain and real death!
The earth-shattering footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the dense trees of the rainforest seemed to be torn with a terrible wound, and a huge sound appeared in Xia Hao's ears from afar.
"Lao Zeng, give me the wine jar!" Lao Li shouted, "Everyone hurry up and escape!" β
"Lao Li, you have to think clearly, the wine ......" Before Xia Hao finished speaking, he heard Lao Li shout: "I know, but this is also the only thing that can compete with the gluttonous dragon!" Xia Hao, you also hurry up, all the trees here won't be able to save it for a while......"
Lao Zeng sighed and reluctantly threw the wine jar to Lao Li.
Xia Hao couldn't and couldn't stop Lao Li, although he knew that it was extremely dangerous to use the Mad Demon Fruit to stimulate his strength again with Lao Li's physical condition, but Lao Li was also thinking about everyone's safety, and now only Lao Li, who had taken Mad Demon Fruit Wine, had a chance to compete with the Gluttonous Dragon!
As for Xia Hao himself, even if his blood spirit has increased hundreds of times, I am afraid that he is not as good as Lao Li now, and it is not worth mentioning in front of the gluttonous evil dragon, so he has no impulse.
Xia Hao glanced at Lao Li deeply, but saw that he raised the jar and poured all the wine into his stomach without hesitation, at this time the gluttonous dragon was getting closer and closer.
Xia Hao ran wildly on the tree bridge with everyone, and in the direction of the arrival of the gluttonous dragon, countless trees fell, and many tree houses in the distance were also damaged, but fortunately, everyone fled in advance.
After Lao Li finished taking the wine made from the Mad Demon Fruit, he roared again and again, and this time his reaction was obviously more intense, his body increased to about twenty meters, and his whole body seemed to be burning with raging flames, and a layer of blood-red wine like substance formed on the surface of Lao Li's body.
Between Lao Li's breaths, his snort was like two flames, and the blood vessels of the whole person were extremely terrifying and clear, like a giant dragon entrenched on him, his face was full of pain, and blood vessels burst open from time to time, bursting like firecrackers.
Lao Li's roar is the best guide for the Gluttonous Dragon, and such an arrogant roar is unintentionally a contempt for the supreme authority of the Gluttonous Dragon, which is something that the tyrant of the Gluttonous Dragon cannot tolerate! Its authority is threatened, and it will no longer be dignified if it is not at war!
The gluttonous dragon finally appeared at this time, Xia Hao looked back in his busy schedule, and finally saw the appearance of this tyrant in the eighth district!
The Gluttonous Eater was the standard primitive dragon body type, with strong hind limbs, dexterous forelimbs, and a long, thick tail. Its head is unusually sharp, with two sharp horns on the top of its head, eyes like copper bells, and a flattened arc-shaped mouth.
The Gluttonous Eater is about twenty meters in size, and its body surface is bright red irregular clusters of protrusions, and the most bizarre thing is that these protrusions are active!
Xia Hao took a closer look again, only to find that these protrusions turned out to be soul beasts! The body surface of the Gluttonous Eater was parasitic with dense unknown soul beasts, which completely wrapped it like the scales of the Gluttonous Dragon, and there were such blood-red soul beasts everywhere.
These unknown blood-red soul beasts resembled part of the body of the Gluttonous Dragon, making the Gluttonous Dragon appear particularly tall.
The blood-red soul beasts kept wriggling, but they were closely connected, trembling and trembling in the footsteps of the gluttonous dragon Heaven-shattering, like blood-red vacuoles, extremely weird.
The Gluttonous Dragon had already seen Lao Li who dared to openly challenge its authority, and it roared, like a super sound wave sounding in everyone's ears, and many people suddenly felt dizzy.
A big war is about to break out, and this will be an unprecedented battle in District 8 and even in the breeding park!
"Xia Hao, what's going on? That person is Lao Li? After Xia Hao arrived at the watchtower, he happened to see Xiao Yi who was on duty.
"It's Lao Li......" Xia Hao smiled bitterly and roughly explained what happened, "Speaking of which, I blame me for this matter, if Lao Li had stopped him before he took those wines, I'm afraid it wouldn't have happened now......"
"Xia Hao, you don't have to blame yourself, Lao Li is a drunkard, once he makes up his mind, no one can stop him!" Xiao Yi sighed, "Now I only hope that Lao Li can turn evil into good fortune ......"
Xiao Yi's voice was very soft and helpless, Xia Hao heard Xiao Yi's worries from it, obviously he didn't have much hope that Lao Li would be able to resist the gluttonous dragon.
A large number of people gathered near the watchtower, and some people went to the other three watchtowers.
Originally, the vicinity of the watchtower was an uninhabited area, and the tree bridge here was not well developed, so many people climbed to the canopy to watch the battle between Lao Li and the Gluttonous Dragon.
"The effect of the wine made by this crazy devil fruit is too terrifying, it actually turned Lao Li into a strong man of more than twenty meters!" Xiao Yi and Xia Hao stood at the top of the watchtower and looked down, and saw two huge figures slowly approaching from a distance.
The gluttonous dragon and Lao Li were both wrapped in blood red, like two bloody gods of war, roaring invisibly crashing in the air, and the eyes of a man and a dragon instantly collided together!
The figures of one man and one dragon are too huge, and although everyone is far away, they can clearly see each other's movements.
After the gluttonous dragon saw Lao Li, he roared loudly and rushed towards Lao Li!
To Xia Hao's surprise, the seemingly bulky body of the Gluttonous Dragon was like a cannonball, and it arrived in front of Lao Li at great speed!
Lao Li didn't show weakness, he threw away the giant hammer that didn't fit his size, clenched his huge fist, and smashed it fiercely at the gluttonous dragon!
The anger between one man and one dragon has reached its maximum, and they have all used their strength at the beginning!
There is not the slightest trick, there is not the slightest hesitation, only the toughest collision!
In the loud sound that shook the sky, the two huge figures were separated with a touch, and Lao Li smashed the gluttonous dragon with a punch, and Lao Li was also swept by the tail of the gluttonous dragon.
The gluttonous dragon was smashed into a blood-red pit by Lao Li's fist, and bright red liquid flowed out of the pit, but it quickly calmed down again!
The wound on Lao Li's body that was extracted by the Gluttonous Evil Dragon also healed quickly under the medicinal effect of the blood-red mad demon fruit, and there was almost no injury to be seen!
The two giant shadows collided again, separated, and collided again with barely any stop...... The loud noise was incessant, and the trees flew as if they had been shattered, and where the two figures passed, all the trees toppled down, exposing the ground covered with thick leaves to the rain.
The raindrops intensified again, like a war song composed for one man and one dragon, surging and unusual.
Again and again, like a roar ringing in the ears, gradually moved towards the depths of the rainforest.
Xia Hao knew that Lao Li was trying his best to guide the Gluttonous Evil Dragon towards the Misty Swamp, so as not to hurt others.
Even at the moment of life and death, Lao Li did not forget the safety of everyone, which moved Xia Hao.
Although he is not familiar with Lao Li, Xia Hao was invisibly infected by Lao Li's sky-high arrogance, this is a man, a real man!
Drinking a lot of wine and eating a lot of meat, these are just the outside, and a real man deserves to have Lao Li as brave as he goes!
"Anyone who has kung fu will follow me!" Xiao raised his arms and shouted, and many people jumped onto the tree bridge.
"Xia Hao, you are here to help me watch the watchtower, although it is unlikely that those hunting beasts in the air will come to sneak attack at this time, it is better to be careful...... If there's an air strike, you hit that drum! Xiao Yi confessed to Xia Hao.
Although Xia Hao also wanted to follow along, he understood that his skills could not even protect himself, let alone advance in the dangerous fog swamp.
Xia Hao nodded firmly at Xiao, and the eyes of the two collided, and they both saw a shining light in each other's eyes.
Seeing Xiao Yi's gaze, Xia Hao knew that if it was possible, Xiao Yi would definitely swear to save Lao Li! The others obviously read this from Xiao Yi's eyes, and they silently prepared, and under Xiao Yi's leadership, they quickly disappeared into the vast rain.
The sound of Lao Li and the gluttonous dragon colliding was gradually weakening, of course, it was not a sign that the battle had stopped, but because it was too far away from the watchtower, it was gradually beyond everyone's hearing range.
If Xia Hao was not mistaken just now, Qin Jiao seemed to follow Xiao Yi to the Misty Swamp, which made Xia Hao's impression of Qin Jiao slightly improved. The rest waited silently near the watchtower, and from time to time someone looked at it, only to walk down with a disappointed face.
The sound of battle had completely disappeared, and Xiao Yi and the others were nowhere to be seen, and the rest of the people were waiting quietly, waiting for a miracle to appear.
The heavy rain was like a noisy and chaotic accompaniment, knocking Xia Hao's heart in a disturbed way, and everyone leaned silently against the trunk of the tree, and no one made a sound.
After the loud bang just now, the rainforest was extremely silent and empty, except for the chaotic tapping of heavy rain.
Xia Hao stood tall in the heavy rain, looking from the high watchtower, in the hazy rain line, there was no living thing.
But Xia Hao still straightened up without relaxation, waiting and waiting like everyone else......
It was already dark, but none of the people who were waiting were impatient, they all stood quietly in the rain, staring at the dark rain with wide eyes, even if they couldn't see anything clearly, their eyes were still wide!
The rain fell non-stop all night, and Xia Hao and others also waited in the rain all night.
When the dawn broke through the night and fell again, Xia Hao finally saw figures appear in his sight!
Xia Hao's eyes kept searching, and finally, he saw Lao Li carried by the four of themβLao Li who had recovered his original appearance.
"They're back! Lao Li is also back! Xia Hao cheered loudly.
When everyone heard the good news, they all stood up, hugging each other and celebrating.
At this moment, the heavy rain also stopped without warning, and the morning sun pierced the misty fog and sprinkled on everyone's faces.
When Xiao Yi and the others arrived at the watchtower, Xia Hao and the others saw Lao Li, who had already fallen into a coma, he was still bleeding all over, there was hardly a good place on his body, wounds and blood vessels were collapsing at will, and his body was covered with Xiao Yi and others' clothes.
In the morning sun, everyone's faces were stained with crystal water droplets, I don't know if it was the residual rain, or the silent tears......
Mu Yelin appeared at the watchtower shortly after Lao Li was carried back, and asked Lao Li to be carried to his residence and treated by him personally.
"Everyone has been waiting all night, let's go back and rest early!" Xiao Yi waved his hand at everyone, "Lao Li will rest assured that he will hand it over to Doctor Mu Yelin!" β
The crowd gradually dispersed, and after Xiao Yi and others changed shifts, they returned to the tree house with Xia Hao and Qin Jiao.
"Brother Xiao, what about the gluttonous dragon? What's going on? On the way, Xia Hao couldn't help but ask.
"The Gluttonous Dragon is dead...... Xiao Yi was silent for a moment before whispering.
Xia Hao looked at Xiao Yi strangely, and then at Qin Jiao, the gluttonous dragon was dead, why didn't they not have the slightest look of excitement, but their expressions were full of worry?
"Wasn't the gluttonous dragon killed by Lao Li?" Xia Hao asked tentatively.
"After Lao Li takes the wine made from the Mad Demon Fruit, although his strength is strong enough, it has a time limit after all, if the effect of the Mad Demon Fruit Wine disappears, Lao Li will not be able to compete with the Gluttonous Dragon at all, and Lao Li's strength is not enough to kill the Gluttony Dragon! The Gluttonous Dragon was sucked alive by the parasitic soul beasts on its body! β
Xiao Yi let out a long breath and slowly told Xia Hao what had happened.
Lao Li and the Gluttonous Eater Dragon collided hard while retreating towards the Misty Swamp, and when Xiao Yi and the others chased after them, Lao Li had already been beaten by the Gluttony Evil Dragon and was dying, and the situation was precarious.
After concentrating all his strength on hitting the head of the Gluttonous Eater, Lao Li's body shrank rapidly, and the effect of the Mad Demon Fruit had disappeared at that time.
The gluttonous dragon that received Lao Li's final blow suddenly went berserk, the blood-red parasites on his body wriggled wildly, and the gluttonous dragon howled miserably as if it had gone crazy, and he had no time to take care of the unconscious Lao Li.
Xiao Yi and the others took the opportunity to save Lao Li, they had already returned, but they found that the gluttonous dragon was running wildly in the misty swamp, and parasitic soul beasts were constantly falling on their bodies, one by one like blood clots, and after these parasitic soul beasts landed, they began to search for living creatures.
The Gluttonous Eater didn't run far before it fell to the ground, and the parasitic soul beast faded from it like a tide, revealing the Gluttonous Eater Dragon's body, which was only about five meters away, and there was only a pile of bones left!
"Could it be that the Gluttonous Dragon is a dry skeleton in its own right?" After listening to Xiao Yi's narration, Xia Hao asked strangely.
"Idiot! The Gluttonous Dragon was devoured by the parasitic soul beast on its body! Qin Jiao scolded Xia Hao.
"What kind of parasitic soul beast is it, after devouring the gluttonous elong in less than a minute!" Xiao Yi said with a frown.
"After the death of the Gluttonous Dragon, where did those parasitic soul beasts go?"
"They are a very ferocious soul beast, and it seems that they are always hungry, after devouring the gluttonous dragon, they will search for living creatures in the misty swamp, and devour every soul beast they encounter until only the bone frame is left!"
"They are very sensitive to the breath of living creatures, if we hadn't all wrapped ourselves in stinky mud, I'm afraid it would still be a question ......of whether we could come back," Xiao Yi sighed, "When we found out that the gluttonous dragon had died, we realized that something was wrong and immediately fled back, but it was not as fast as those parasitic soul beasts." β
"We can survive, thanks to a swamp stinky crocodile, if it hadn't been for the inspiration it gave us to sneak into the mire to avoid those parasitic soul beasts, I'm afraid we would have become a skeleton!"
"Those parasitic soul beasts searched in the misty swamp all night, and it wasn't until the morning when the sky gradually brightened that they moved deeper into the misty swamp, and we crawled out of the swamp......" Xiao Yi smiled bitterly and sniffed his body, "After soaking in the stinky swamp all night, although the road was almost washed away by the rain, the smell was still on my body." β
"On the way back, the ground is full of white skeletons, one by one is very complete, I don't know why, they will automatically turn back near the woods, originally we were still worried that you would be found by these things in the forest, it seems that there is no need to worry for the time being."
"Then have you seen the specific appearance of those parasitic soul beasts?" Xia Hao asked.
"At first they were very small, about the size of a grain of rice, very much like spiders, with a transparent red vacuole on their backs, several slender legs, and when they devoured living creatures, they would grow, and when they reached the size of their fists, the vacuoles on their backs would burst and split into a mass of larvae, which would be born looking for food! Grow, split, grow, split......"
"That's how they live, and by the morning, they've completely turned the misty swamp red, and the ground is densely packed with them! They move so fast that nothing seems to stop them, and everywhere they pass is bone-covered ......"
"If there is no accident, this kind of thing has a great relationship with Setirifin...... "Xia Hao sighed, "Now I can be sure that Setirifen is the remnant of the cannibal clan, and it is a very special blood sacrifice among the cannibals!" Those parasitic soul beasts are the companion demon worms of the blood sacrificer, and they are interdependent with the blood sacrificer, the companion demon worm provides great power to the blood sacrificer, and the blood sacrifice provides the blood sacrifice ...... for the companion demon worm."
"Blood Sacrificer? How come I've never heard of this title? Are they also cannibals? Xiao Yi asked Xia Hao in surprise.
"Actually, the ancestors of cannibals are close to humans, and it can even be said that they are the closest race to humans!" Xia Hao shook his head, "It's just that they use humans as food, steaming and frying them, just like humans eat other soul beasts......"
"Cannibal is the name of the barbarian race that people love to eat humans, in fact, cannibalism is nothing to soul beasts, just like human soul beasts, it is the most common thing in nature. So, in essence, cannibals are not so terrifying, but cannibals gain power after eating people, and this is what makes people really afraid. β
"Listening to your tone, it seems that you still sympathize with cannibals?" Qin Jiao said coldly.
"It's not sympathy, I'm just telling the truth!" Xia Hao waved his hand, "Cannibals like to eat people, but not all people can gain strength by eating human flesh and blood, among them, only blood sacrificers have such ability." β
"Blood Sacrificers are generally in a leading position among the cannibals, not only because of their great strength, but what really makes the cannibals follow the companion demon worm on the blood sacrificer, and the cannibals regard this companion demon worm as their true god, and they worship the blood sacrificer, believing that the blood sacrifice is the messenger of the true god."
"The companion demon worm survives by absorbing the sacrificial blood from the blood sacrificer, and provides the blood sacrifice person with very strong strength. Blood sacrifice is the honorific name given by the cannibals to the special blood of the blood sacrificer, believing that this is the favorite blood of the true god, and can only be sacrificed to the true god. Unlike the blood of ordinary cannibals, the sacrificial blood has a very strange effect, that is, it can limit the division of the companion demon worm! β
"The parasitic soul beasts we saw on the Gluttonous Dragon earlier are actually companion demon insects, I guess Lao Li's last blow was to break the special organization that produces blood sacrifice on the gluttonous dragon, which made the companion demon worms split wildly, not only making the gluttonous dragon devoured alive, but also making the companion demon worms all over the misty swamp!"
"Xia Hao, where did you learn about this?" Xiao Yi looked at Xia Hao and asked.
"Maybe this is all his nonsense......" Qin Jiao said suspiciously on the side.
"I can't say the source of these secret information, but believe me, it's absolutely true, Tianyu is going to be in trouble!" Xia Hao said solemnly.
What Xia Hao knows naturally comes from the development of the later stage of the game, and Setirifin, the blood sacrificer, is the blood demon in the game, and those terrible creatures will bring the most painful memories to all players in the future, but Xia Hao didn't expect that there would be such a blood demon in reality!
"What really puzzles me is how the companion demon worm can appear on the Gluttonous Dragon! Once the companion demon worms lose the suppression of the sacrificial blood, they will split endlessly as they do now, and those companion demon worms were able to survive the gluttonous dragon before, and this is what really worries me! β
"Does it matter?"
"It can be said that it is about the survival of the Heavenly Domain and the entire world!" Xia Hao nodded solemnly, "If you can figure this out, it will be possible to save the world!" (To be continued.) )
